Question

10: Convert 77.0 L at 18.0 mmHg to its new volume at standard pressure.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is   V2 = 1.82 l

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = 77 l

Pressure 1 = 18 mmHg

Volume 2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 760 mmHg

Process

Use Boyle's law to solve this problem

                P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

                 V2 = P1V1/P2

-Substitution

                 V2 = (18 x 77) / 760

-Simplification

                 V2 = 1386 / 760

-Result

                 V2 = 1.82 l
